A POLITICAL mural of blasting UKIP leader Nigel Farage has been painted on the side of a church in Edinburgh.

The Church of St John the Evangelist on Princes Street is widely known for its thought provoking art.

The latest installment shows images of the extremist leaders Adolf Hitler, Oswald Mosley, Nick Griffin from the BNP and most recently Nigel Farage.

It reads: "Evolution?"

Markus Duenzkofer said: "We really wanted to make people engage and think and reanalyze.

"Advent is all about light and darkness and I think there's a lot of darkness and fear around immigration in this country and there some people who are using that fear to not bring in any light but to put in more darkness."
